Vinyl-Violet My Little Deerhead Chihuahua

Hi Everypawdy! Its been a while since I last did a blog, but here I am today writing about our little lady Vinyl-Violet, its getting close to her eye operation, she is having  her left eye removed as we have tried over the last year to find a way to be able to have her eye saved but with no evil, over the last 16 months we have tried so had with medicine and and constant eye drops to save her eye, but have be unable to fix her problem, The poor little girl has gone blind from all the ulcers and scaring from the buildup of muck scratching her eye! So we are going to have one very own ChiRiffic pirate and she will be so much happier and healthier, we have thought long and hard about this issue as having an eye removed was the last thing we wanted for her, But after trying everything we could we made the hard decision to book her in for the eye removal. And it's not long now as its on the 21st of November 2018 so it is fast approaching. 

Please keep Vinyl-Violet in your thoughts, and here is a little more information regarding her operation.

What is Enucleation? 
Enucleation is the surgical removal of an eye and its associated structures, e.g. eyelids. The procedure is undertaken in order to prevent pain or spread of disease, such as when an eye is irreversibly damaged, cancerous, or affected by non-responsive glaucoma. 
Enucleation in dogs is often a treatment of last resort, when all previous attempts to salvage the eye have failed. The procedure is carried out under full general anaesthetic and, although a major procedure, there is every chance of a successful outcome. 
This is not a specialist procedure and is commonly carried out at general vet practice. 
 
Enucleation Procedure in Dogs 
Enucleation is never undertaken lightly and only after all other treatment options have been explored. For example with glaucoma, referral to place a surgical stent (drain) in the eye may be an option. Enucleation requires full general anesthetic and may involve an overnight stay after the surgery, for additional pain relief and monitoring. Elderly patients may require intravenous fluids during the surgery to reduce the risk of kidney complications. 

The procedure involves:  Preparing the patient by withholding food overnight prior to the operation A pre-op check, possibly including screening blood tests A premedication injection and pain relief to prepare the dog for the aesthetic The dog may be put on intravenous fluids at this point The anesthetic is administered via a catheter in the front leg and maintained via gas delivered through a tube in the airway A vet tech monitors the dog's vital signs  Hair is carefully clipped from around the eye and face The skin is made sterile with surgical scrub The surgeon scrubs up, and then sutures the eyelids of the affected eye together The surgeon removes the eye by careful dissection, and any bleeding vessels clamped and tied off Skin is sutured over the empty socket The dog wakes from the anesthetic and must wear a cone to protect the surgical site The dog is discharged with pain relief and perhaps antibiotics The dog requires a post-op check at two to three days The sutures are removed 10 - 14 days later 

Efficacy of Enucleation in Dogs 
Once the initial post-operative discomfort is over, enucleation is extremely effective at preventing ocular pain, without risk of relapse. Many owners who opt for surgery after a delay often notice their dog is happier than it has been some time, now the long term low pain has gone. In many cases, the alternative to enucleation is long-term management of a condition, which can be difficult or even impossible to achieve. This may require visits to specialists for repeated anesthetics to repair damaged corneal tissue or regular visits to have the pressure within the eye measured. Medical management of severe eye conditions is rarely successful, which leaves the possibility that the dog is in constant low-grade pain, so treatment decisions are best made with the dog's long term welfare in mind. 

Enucleation Recovery in Dogs 
It is essential the dog wears a cone until the sutures are removed. For the first two to three days postoperatively, the dog may be quiet from the anesthetic and experiencing some discomfort. The pain can be managed with medications, which your vet will supply.  Following a check-up at the two to three-day point, the dog has gentle lead exercise until the sutures are removed at the 10 - 14-day mark.  Complications are rare, but include hemorrhage or wound breakdown. If the bleeding is severe, revisional surgery may be required or the clinician may opt to pack the socket and use pressure to prevent further blood loss. However, the vast majority of patients make a full and uneventful recovery.  Once the sutures are removed no further aftercare is needed and the patient signed off.  

Cost of Enucleation in Dogs 
The one-off cost of enucleation surgery must be balanced against repeated specialist visits, repeated anesthetics, and ongoing medication costs. At a general practice, the cost of enucleation surgery ranges from around $400 - $950 depending on the supportive care needed.  Prescription eye drops for glaucoma cost around $15 -25 per bottle and may last around 2 - 3 weeks each. When a condition is managed medically the dog may need weekly visits initially and then three-monthly check-ups. The cost of these visits can be $25 - 50 for a regular vet, to $70 - $270 for a specialist veterinary ophthalmologist.  

Dog Enucleation Considerations 
There are many factors to consider with enucleation surgery. The procedure is permanent and irreversible, and the dog blind on that side afterward. However, many of the conditions for which enucleation is appropriate may have already resulted in loss of sight. The short-term discomfort of surgery is balanced against the long-term benefit of being pain-free. In addition, this surgical option can be cost effective as the results are permanent. The risks of surgery are low and relate to hemorrhage and any anesthetic risks for that individual patient. However, good surgical technique and pre-op screening minimises both of these factors. 

Enucleation Prevention in Dogs
 Many of the health conditions that result in enucleation being an appropriate option are not preventable. Conditions such as glaucoma are strongly linked to genetic conditions such as luxating lens or poor drainage angles from the eye. 
Please be vigilant for the earliest signs of discomfort in your dog to get the eyes checked. Early medical treatment stands a better chance of success than much later intervention.  Other problems such as eyes popping out of sockets are linked to face shape. Flat-faced breeds such as pugs and pekes are at greatest risk. To avoid problems, the owner should avoid scrubbing their dog (which pulls back the eyelids) and use a harness rather than a neck collar.  

Owners should be vigilant for signs of eye discomfort, such as blinking and squinting, closing the eye, rubbing, or an ocular discharge, and seek veterinary attention. Prompt treatment of ulcers on the cornea (surface of the eye) can stop them from perforating which could result in the loss of an eye.  

We hope this has helped for you to understand a little more about Vinyl-Violets condition! We will keep you all updated with the recovery of our beautiful girl!

Miss Squeak Talks Are Chihuahua's Easy To Train?



 Miss Mildred had her first dress waiting for when she came home, it was a light black and white cheese cloth dress and she looked so very cute in it and she never even worried about having it on and that is where the dressing up started, 

I also wanted her to wear shoes to protect her paws from the hot ground in summer so we started with a little pair of yellow sandles.  
At first she was a bit unsure of them as 
they were a somewhat too big but I would just
 put them on her for five minutes at a time then take them off just so she would learn that they were okay to wear and I would also treat her with chicken so it was a positive 
experience for her. 
And now she has gumboots, uggboots and sandles  and she loves wearing them all. 
Now she won't go outside on cold or wet ground without her shoes!

Now what else have I done to train my sweet little chihuahua! I have taught Miss Mildred to stop barking once she has let me know someone is at the door. Now this was a challenge for her and it was very hard to redirect her energy so we started very slowly and got other people in the house to knock at the door and as soon as she would start barking I would say "who is there" and then say on your mat and we have done this every time someone was at the door and now its like 


Miss Mildred has a job and we only have to say the command words and it now stops! But this did take a long time to get this result, so be understanding when trying to train your little furbaby! I wish you luck. 


 Here are some more helpful tips and tricks to get you on your way. Miss Mildred and I Miss Squeak hope it is helpful in getting your furbaby to do some of the things your are wanting them to do!
So let get the training tips and tricks started.


Are Chihuahuas easy to train?

It depends on what you wish to train them to try and do. Potty training a Chihuahua may be terribly troublesome – if truth be told, Chihuahuas are one in all the most troublesome breeds to educate.
Training a Chihuahua to not bark sharply at each little thing she sees or hears are often tough – this breed is very alert and observant  fast to notice something that appears "different".

Training Chihuahuas to be friendly (or at least accepting) of strangers and strange dogs can be tough – someChihuahuas are naturally friendly, however most are at least reserved, while several are downright suspicious.

But training Chihuahuas to fit well into your home, listen to you, and be well-behaved is not difficult in any respect....provided you insist that they do so right from day one. Chihuahuas, you see, can obey you while still maintaining their laughable and amusing temperament.


Owners who wish to spoil their Chihuahua by treating him like a very little baby and permitting him to do whatever he desires typically end up with a Chihuahua who is excitable, nervous, too dependent, or downright nasty. These Furbaby owners provide our breed a nasty name. Chihuahuas don't need to end up like this. 
It's all up to you!

"How simple is it 
to  train Chihuahuas?" my answer is, "Housebreaking, barking, and socialization are often a challenge, however getting them to pay attention to you is not difficult. However a lot depends on the temperament and personality of the individual furbaby, plus your own dog training skills."

Here are some coaching tips for training Chihuahua puppies and adult dogs:

Teach your Chihuahua the way to be alone. That sounds odd, I know. However several Chihuahuas are excessively dependent and have a tendency to bark and chew things up when they are lonely. So you don't want to leave your Chihuahua alone for an excessive amount of (more than four hours each day is simply too much). However you do need to leave him alone sometimes so he does not become so addicted to you that he cannot stay alone without pitching a fit or becoming fretful, a behavioural issue referred to as "separation anxiety." So you should not stay with your Chihuahua all the time, or cuddle with him all the time. Instead, you need to coach him to be independent, to stand on his own four paws and find things to do on his own.

Teach the correct words to your Chihuahua. 

This technique of training Chihuahuas includes teaching specific words in specific ways so your dog not only learns the words but conjointly develops the respectful attitude that makes him happy to obey you. You may need to work particularly hard on "Quiet" (because Chihuahuas are often hyper-alert and therefore noisy). "Enough" is a vital word for your Chihuahua to learn. Chihuahuas typically demand attention and too-frequent smooching. This is notpsychologically healthy for your dog because it will cause separation anxiety once you are not around.

Start toilet training quickly.

But expect it to take several months before your Chihuahua's miniaturised internal organs are robust enough for reliable control. Throughout these several months, your Chihuahua must not be loosed within the house. Its really easy for them to sneak behind a chair or underneath a small table, and it takes only a couple of seconds for the deed to be done. The results can be hard to see and when you don't see it, you don't correct it – and so the unhealthy habit becomes established. If you reside in a very cold or rainy climate, toilet training may be particularly hard, becauseChihuahuas hate both the cold and also the rain. A lined potty space is strongly suggested. Generally a bow-wowdoor is critical therefore your Chihuahua can run outside the instant he feels the urge.

Socialise your Chihuahua puppy with strangers and different dogs. 

Chihuahuas can be unapproachable, and if you do not teach them ahead of time to be friendly and trusting toward folks they don't recognize, their natural caution will become nervousness or mistrust, which are not any fun to livewith. Similarly, you need to teach your Chihuahua puppy to be calm and accepting toward different dogs. ManyChihuahuas can put on a show of excited savageness ("pitching a fit") once they see a wierd dog, particularly an oversized one. It sounds funny, however if you don't curtail it firmly, your Chihuahua might end up really aggressive, which is probably going to get him killed by a bigger dog.


What You Need to Know

A Chihuahua's temperament is unique in many ways. First, the dog will be absolutely pleased just enjoying all of its time with you. As companion dogs, Chihuahuas are carefully bred to be connected at the hip to their owner wherever they go. Even so, that attachment can also lead to dominant behaviors and when these dogs are not properly socialized with other dogs and people, there are several aggression issues:

  • they behave larger than they appear, which while very adorable and sometimes even entertaining, can be quite dangerous if your dog is not trained properly
  • can be standoffish with strangers
  • can get aggressive toward other dogs
  • snappy with children
  • overly jumpy to noises outside. 



Fortunately all of these behaviours can be controlled with good, early training


The Best Way to Train a Chihuahua
First thing you have to do when training a Chihuahua is to take control of the household. Contrary to popular belief, that adorable little dog thinks he looks after the house and will do whatever he needs to do to show you that is true, if you let him. Here are some important basics when training a Chihuahua:


1. You must establish limitations and be the leader of the pack. 

2. Feeding Times - feed your Chihuahua at set intervals. Never let the dog determine when it wants to eat. This seems trivial, but it shows the dog who makes the decisions in the household, and that he needs to conform.

3. Walking - walk your Chihuahua two times a day or more, but be sure to control the walk. Do not let the dog pull or dictate the direction you are going to go. When training a Chihuahua, leash control is vital.

4. Bouncing and Furnishings - With a tiny dog like a Chihuahua, you can easily let the dog get up on furniture whenever it wants. However, control of your space is important to imposing limitations. Never respond to barking or whining and set restrictions on what furnishings the dog is allowed.

5. Entering and Exiting - overlook your dog when you come and go from the house. Only take notice of the Chihuahua when it reaches a calm, relaxed state.
To truly educate a Chihuahua, you need to be the alpha leader, or the dog will always feel he is in charge.

Improving Mental Stimulation
A Chihuahua can be worn-out quickly enough, but the majority of these dogs still do not get enough exercise or emotional stimulation. How many people play fetch or go to dog parks with a little dog like that? Coach your Chihuahua with basic commands like sit and stay, speak and quiet, fetch, and anything else you like.

With regards to learning the best way to educate a Chihuahua, reducing the chances for the dog to challenge you and to be overwhelmed with energy and boredom will remove much of the bad personality issues that most of us have with regards to their rambunctious nature.

Like any furbaby, the Chihuahua can be trained; it just takes a lot of patience and creativity on the part of the owner, when teaching the dog. The owner must also understand the temperament of a Chihuahua in order to successfully teach the dog the basic commands and various tricks.

Chihuahuas may be petite dogs, but they actually have a big, strong character. In fact, Chihuahuas have the ability to control a home and its master which is the reason proper training it is very important. When you teach this dog, it helps to ensure his training in obeying you instead of manipulating you around to what he wants. Another benefit of dog training is that you strengthen your bond with your pet; thereby, ensuring his loyalty to you as long as he lives.

Chihuahuas are intelligent, energetic and lively in nature. They love physical activities and those that stimulate their brain. Since training involves both of these elements, Chihuahuas warmly embrace it given the proper handling and encouragement. Of course, rewards and constant praise should never be forgotten because they are crucial in enticing these headstrong canines to do the things you want them to do.

What to Teach Your Chihuahua
When training Chihuahuas, owners should keep in mind that patience is absolutely essential. Avoid training when you're tired or angry. Take it just one step at a time and be sure to keep your treats ready before you start your lessons. In the home, it's important that the Chihuahua is potty trained at an early stage. 

The basic commands should not be ignored. 

down,stay,come,heel,roll,over,sit

You can put your dog on a table while teaching these commands as it can be tiring if you have to bend all the time.
Crate training is also recommended. This should teach them the right place to poop in the house. See to it that you bring the puppy to the box after eating, waking up or whenever you see him circling. You can use newspapers as well, but be sure to change the used ones.

How to Handle Your Chihuahua

The number one rule in handling Chihuahuas is to always be gentle with them. Remember not to use choke collars on a Chihuahua as their necks can easily get hurt. A good option is to use the flat buckle collar or harness to protect its trachea.

Exercise should be a priority and if possible, it must be done on a daily basis. However, it may not need long walks as this breed is already energetic in nature so running around an apartment is usually enough exercise for the dog.


If you want to take your small dog for a walk during cold weather, be sure to let him wear a sweater as toy breeds are usually very sensitive to cold temperatures. Avoid taking your Chihuahua out when the temperature is to cold. Never allow your Chihuahua to jump from a high place as he might hurt his joints due to the landing impact. Joint disorders and fractures are among the common problems of this breed therefore you need to be careful while handling your furbaby.

Miss Squeak Talks Apple and Deer Head Chihuahua's

Deer Head vs Apple Head Chihuahua – What’s The Difference?

Okay so today is the day we talk about this issue as it has come up  before but I never addressed it so her we go,


If you have done any research into the Chihuahua breed, you've most likely heard of deer head and apple head getting used to explain them. Breeders, veterinarians, consultants and furbaby owners often use these terms to explain specific Chihuahuas based on their physical characteristics and look. The actual fact is that most Chihuahuas will either be classified as deer head or apple head based on how they appear. So, what precisely do these unusually-sounding terms mean? Keep reading and i can reveal the variations between deer head and apple Chihuahuas and what you need to understand regarding them.
Naturally, one would possibly assume that deer head and apple head Chihuahuas are a particular breed. After all, with such a large amount of individuals referring to their Chihuahuas with these terms, logic ought to tell you that it's a certain breed. If you discuss with the American Kennel Club (AKC), United Kennel Club (UKC) or Chihuahua Club of Australia you merely will not find these varieties formally recognised. this is often a somewhat similar scenario as the term "teacup Chihuahuas," Which I have also  explained on another section of my blog. Even if individuals use the terms apple head, deer head and teacup daily to explain their Chihuahuas, the reality is that none of those are officially recognised varieties by any major canine association

Apple Head Chihuahua Characteristics and Information:

As previously expressed, no major canine associated, The Australian Kennel, recognises apple head or deer Chihuahua varieties. you can check their web site, send them an email or call them up in person if you do not believe ME. However, they do place an emphasis on the "apple" form of a Chihuahua's head because the breed standard. Both the Chihuahua Club of America and also the AKC state the breed standard's head must possess "A well rounded 'apple dome' skull, with or without molera."
If you are questioning what a molera is, let ME explain - Chihuahuas ar often born with a soft spot in their skull wherever the bone failed to properly form. Instead of  having a tough, thick bone that totally protects their brain, a Chihuahua with a molera can have a rubbery patch underneath their skin. While  it does not supply as much protection as a tough boney skull, it still offers a valuable line of defense against head injury. The exact range of Chihuahuas stricken by this condition is unknown, however some breed experts claim that up to 80th of Chihuahuas have a molar.

Here are a number of the characteristics of an apple head Chihuahua:
Short muzzle
Prominent jawline
Large, distinguished forehead
Round, apple-shaped head (with or without molar)

Deer Head Chihuahua

Deer Head Chihuahua deer Head Chihuahua Characteristics and Information 
On the other side of the fence is that the deer head Chihuahua, that are equally as common as their counterpart the apple head. Because the breed standards set by the main canine associations specifically state that the top of a Chihuahua should be apple-shaped, deer head Chihuahuas are often excluded from tournaments and shows. Some folks even regard them as poor breeding thanks to their informal formed head. Do not  let that stop you from owning one, though, as they can make  terrific pets that are just as doting, mischievous and fun as apple heads.
Here are a number of the characteristics of a deer head Chihuahua:
Like the apple head, deer head Chihuahuas may be found with or without a molera.
Tend to have less health issues.
Long snout protruding further out than apple head Chihuahuas.
More slim skull that resembles the head of a deer, thence the name.
Many owners swear that deer head Chihuahuas are more manageable and less aggressive than apple heads.

Should I Purchase a Deer Head or Apple Head Chihuahua?

Whether you ought to own a deer head or apple head Chihuahua may be a choice that solely you'll make. Because of  their cute and tiny size, many of us base their decision on appearance alone. whereas there's nothing wrong with taking into account however a Chihuahua puppy appearance, you should really be focusing on their temperament and traits. Once you've found a breeder with a litter of pups, go over there one or two time to actually sit down and play with them. this may offer you an opportunity to see that Chihuahua pups are mischievous, fun, affectionate and want to be around you. I remember selecting my first Chihuahua, Miss Mildred because she was the peewee who came up to ME and would not flee. I straight off knew she was the one for me and have not regretted making that call.
Something that is necessary to notice is that apple head Chihuahuas are additional prone to health issues that plague the breed. Compared to alternative dog breeds, Chihuahuas have comparatively few health issues, however this does not mean they're going to keep 100 percent healthy their entire lives. some of the foremost common health issues related to Chihuahuas are diabetes, hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar), inflammatory disease and bone fractures To mention some. deer head Chihuahuas may still suffer from a number of these conditions, however the possibilities are lower than those of an apple head's.

Miss Squeaks Talks Miss Mildred and Facebook!




 Okay todays blog is about how people have gone to far with reporting people on Facebook ! Over the last two days i have been getting reported for animal cruelty  as the picture below is the  one that was reported first then the one after and so on this makes me sick to my tummy as i believe, it all started because of a comment I  made on a video from the famous chihuahua page of Pacho wearing shoes for the first time and gee it was cute to see hime wear his shoes for the first time! i believe dogs should wear shoes in the summer to protect their little paw pads from the hot scorching pavement and in the winter to save them from the freezing cold all in all it is the owners opinion to place shoes on their furbaby paws. Miss Mildred wears her uggboots in winter just because she doesn't like to get her feet wet and if i don't put them on her she will wee and poo in the house hence the shoes are a good fit for us, But as the silly young mouthy girl got into a stupid rant about the  picture i posted of Miss Mildred in her winter coat and uggboots and the fact that i was abusing my dog and i should get a doll and so on something that i don't get involved in and because i didn't argue with this person she went on to report over ten of pictures! Now i feel like the bad person when in fact i was the one whom was being trolled by a small minded person. Has anyone else had this problem on Facebook ?? My reply to the Facebook police was as follows,

 Dear Facebook, Whom ever reported my dogs pictures this is just stupid she was sleeping in her dress when she woke up and i took this picture i for one would never put my dog in harms way so i think you should look at the people reporting others and see what they are doing just being trolls of the internet ! i will not be taking down this picture as i think it's cute you should be looking at the small minded mixed up people that find it fun to report other peoples pictures i can understand if i was hurting my chihuahua and placing her in danger!! But if you took some time out to look at all my other pictures she sleeps like that all the time.  I thinks this is down right petty and stupid! Thanks very much
